[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you kidding me?  I'm a WOHM, and I want one.

Anyone want to come join our marriage?  Two physician couple, four adorable kids.  We need someone to do all of the cooking, meal planning, laundry, cleaning, and money management, be active in the school community and with the teachers, decorate the house and celebrate holidays, purchase all Christmas presents, plan vacations and parties, sign the older kids up for activities and drive them there and back, each the little ones during the day and play age appropriate activities, do minor repairs, and hire out and manage all yardwork.

Yes. And I have gone this route.  The problem with this is actually not the money, but that you lose a lot of privacy.  It's sort of a weird dynamic to have a lot of people working in your home while you are gone at work.  It's really, really different than coming home to having had your spouse there all day.

Also, you really can't hire out most of the second half of that list.  No one is going to figure out the "right" baseball team to sign up your kid for, make sure they have their uniform and cleats that fit, and help coordinate the carpool to drive them their and back.  At best, you can hire someone to do your share of the carpool.
